< Ezekiel 3 >
1 Moreover he saide vnto me, Sonne of man, eate that thou findest: eate this roule, and goe, and speake vnto the house of Israel.
Bondye di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Manje sa m' ba ou la a. Manje woulo liv la. Apre sa, al pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
2 So I opened my mouth, and he gaue mee this roule to eate.
Se konsa, mwen louvri bouch mwen, li fè m' manje woulo liv la.
3 And he said vnto me, Sonne of man, cause thy belly to eate, and fill thy bowels with this roule that I giue thee. Then did I eate it, and it was in my mouth as sweete as honie.
Li di m' ankò. -Nonm o! Manje non, plen vant ou ak liv mwen ba ou a. Mwen manje l', li te dous nan bouch mwen kou siwo myèl.
4 And he said vnto me, Sonne of man, goe, and enter into the house of Israel, and declare them my wordes.
Lèfini, Bondye di m' ankò: -Nonm o! Ale bò kote moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Di yo tout pawòl mwen te di ou di yo.
5 For thou art not sent to a people of an vnknowen tongue, or of an hard language, but to the house of Israel,
Se pa bò kote yon nasyon ki pale yon lòt lang ki difisil pou ou konprann mwen voye ou. Se bò kote moun pèp Izrayèl yo menm mwen voye ou.
6 Not to many people of an vnknowen tongue, or of an harde language, whose wordes thou canst not vnderstand: yet if I should sende thee to them, they would obey thee.
Se pa bò kote bann moun lòt nasyon yo ki pale lòt lang ki difisil pou ou konprann mwen voye ou. Si se te bò kote moun sa yo m' te voye ou, yo ta koute ou.
7 But the house of Israel will not obey thee: for they will not obey me: yea, all the house of Israel are impudent and stiffe hearted.
Men, pa gen pyès moun nan pèp Izrayèl la k'ap vle koute ou, paske yo pa vle koute m'. Tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo gen tèt di ak move santiman nan kè yo.
8 Beholde, I haue made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead harde against their foreheads.
Koulye a, m'ap fè ou kenbe tèt ak yo tankou yo kenbe tèt ak mwen an, pou ou ka koresponn ak yo.
9 I haue made thy forehead as the adamant, and harder then the flint: feare them not therefore, neither be afraid at their lookes: for they are a rebellious house.
M'ap fè tèt ou di pase wòch, l'ap di tankou wòch dyaman. Pa pè yo, pa tranble devan yo. Se yon move ras moun ki gen tèt di yo ye.
10 He said moreouer vnto me, Sonne of man, receiue in thine heart al my words that I speake vnto thee, and heare them with thine eares,
Bondye di ankò: -Nonm o! Louvri zòrèy ou, tande sa mapral di ou. Kenbe pawòl mwen yo nan kè ou.
11 And goe and enter to them that are led away captiues vnto the children of thy people, and speake vnto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord God: but surely they will not heare, neither will they in deede cease.
Apre sa, ale bò kote moun yo te depòte yo, moun menm peyi avè ou yo. W'a pale ak yo, w'a di yo men sa mwen menm, Seyè a, m' voye di yo. Yo te mèt koute ou, yo te mèt pa koute ou, zafè yo!
12 Then the spirite tooke me vp, and I heard behinde me a noise of a great russhing, saying, Blessed be ye glorie of the Lord out of his place.
Apre sa, Lespri Bondye a pran m', li leve m' anlè. Mwen tande yon bann vwa dèyè do m' ki t'ap di: Lwanj pou Seyè a ki fè wè gwo pouvwa li nan syèl kote l' rete a.
13 I heard also the noyse of the wings of the beasts, that touched one another, and the ratling of the wheeles that were by them, euen a noyse of a great russhing.
Mwen tande bri zèl bèt yo ki t'ap bat ansanm ak bri wou yo, ou ta di bri yon foul moun k'ap rele.
14 So the spirit lift me vp, and tooke me away and I went in bitternesse, and indignation of my spirite, but the hand of the Lord was strong vpon me.
Lespri a te leve m' anlè, li pote m' ale. Pouvwa Seyè a te vin chita sou mwen avèk fòs. Men, mwen te boulvèse, kè m' te sere.
15 Then I came to them that were led away captiues to Tel-abib, that dwelt by the riuer Chebar, and I sate where they sate, and remained there astonished among them seuen dayes.
Se konsa mwen rive lavil Tèl Abid toupre larivyè Keba kote moun yo te depòte yo te rete a. Pandan sèt jou, mwen rete la nan mitan yo, tou dekontwole apre tou sa m' te wè ak tou sa m' te tande.
16 And at the ende of seuen dayes, the worde of the Lord came againe vnto me, saying,
Apre sèt jou sa yo, Seyè a pale avè m', li di m' konsa:
17 Sonne of man, I haue made thee a watchman vnto the house of Israel: therefore heare the worde at my mouth, and giue them warning from me.
-Nonm o! Mwen mete ou faksyonnè pou nasyon Izrayèl la. W'a tande mesaj m'a ba ou, w'a avèti yo pou mwen.
18 When I shall say vnto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die, and thou giuest not him warning, nor speakest to admonish the wicked of his wicked way, that he may liue, the same wicked man shall die in his iniquitie: but his blood will I require at thine hande.
Lè mwen fè ou konnen yon mechan gen pou l' mouri, si ou pa avèti l' pou l' chanje, pou l' kite move pant l'ap swiv la pou l' ka sove lavi l', l'ap toujou mouri poutèt peche li fè yo, men se ou menm m'ap rann reskonsab lanmò li.
19 Yet if thou warne the wicked, and he turne not from his wickednesse, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquitie, but thou hast deliuered thy soule.
Men, si ou avèti mechan an, lèfini mechan an pa chanje, li pa kite move pant l'ap swiv la, l'ap mouri poutèt peche li fè yo. Men ou menm, w'ap sove lavi pa ou.
20 Likewise if a righteous man turne from his righteousnesse, and commit iniquitie, I will lay a stumbling blocke before him, and he shall die, because thou hast not giuen him warning: he shall die in his sinne, and his righteous deedes, which he hath done, shall not be remembred: but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Si yon moun ki t'ap mache dwat tanmen fè sa ki mal, m'ap mete yon malè sou wout li pou l' mouri. Si ou pa avèti l', l'ap mouri poutèt peche li fè yo, mwen p'ap chonje jan l' te konn mache dwat anvan sa a. Men, se ou menm m'ap rann reskonsab lanmò li.
21 Neuerthelesse, if thou admonish that righteous man, that the righteous sinne not, and that he doeth not sinne, he shall liue because he is admonished: also thou hast deliuered thy soule.
Si okontrè, ou avèti yon moun k'ap mache dwat pou l' pa fè sa ki mal, si li koute ou, si li pa fè sa ki mal, li p'ap mouri. Ou menm tou, w'a sove lavi ou.
22 And the hande of the Lord was there vpon me, and he said vnto me, Arise, and goe into the fielde, and I will there talke with thee.
Mwen santi pouvwa Seyè a sou mwen ankò. Li di m' konsa: -Leve non. Soti al nan fon an. M'a pale la avè ou.
23 So when I had risen vp, and gone foorth into the fielde, beholde, the glorie of the Lord stoode there, as the glorie which I sawe by the riuer Chebar, and I fell downe vpon my face.
Mwen leve, mwen desann al nan fon an. Lè m' rive la, mwen wè gwo bèl limyè ki te fè m' konprann Seyè a te kanpe la, tankou mwen te wè l' bò larivyè Keba a. Mwen tonbe sou de jenou m', tèt mwen bese jouk atè.
24 Then the Spirit entred into me, which set me vp vpon my feete, and spake vnto me, and said to me, Come, and shut thy selfe within thine house.
Men, Lespri Bondye a antre sou mwen, li fè m' kanpe sou de pye m'. Li pale avè m', li di m' konsa: -Al fèmen kò ou lakay ou.
25 But thou, O sonne of man, beholde, they shall put bandes vpon thee, and shall binde thee with them, and thou shalt not goe out among them.
Nonm o! Yo pral mete ou anba kòd. Y'ap mare ou byen mare, ou p'ap ka mete pwent pye ou deyò.
26 And I will make thy tongue cleaue to the roofe of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dume, and shalt not be to them as a man that rebuketh: for they are a rebellious house.
Mwen pral fè lang ou lou nan bouch ou. W'ap bèbè, ou p'ap ka avèti move ras moun tèt di sa yo.
27 But when I shall haue spoken vnto thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, He that heareth, let him heare, and he that leaueth off, let him leaue: for they are a rebellious house.
Apre sa, lè m'a pale avè ou ankò, m'a ba ou lapawòl, epi w'a ba yo mesaj mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, m'a ba ou. Sa ki vle koute va koute, sa ki pa vle koute, zafè yo! Se yon move ras moun tèt di yo ye.
